From c32c47c68a0ae701088c5b2c3798856ed16746ae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josh Poimboeuf Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2016 10:41:48 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] x86/unwind: Warn on bad frame pointer Detect situations in the unwinder where the frame pointer refers to a bad address, and print an appropriate warning. Use printk_deferred_once() because the unwinder can be called with the console lock by lockdep via save_stack_trace().
